Additions that didn't help ROTK

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I don't recall Pippin's exact lines in the movie when he's asked to sing by Denethor, but they're close enough in spirit to his book response: ‘[I sing] well enough for my own people. But we have no songs fit for great halls and evil times, lord. We seldom sing of anything more terrible than wind or rain. And most of my songs are about things that make us laugh; or about food and drink, of course.’ <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>In the movie, the quote ran, "Well... yes. That is, well enough for my own people. But we have no songs fit for great halls and... <I>evil</I> times."<P>By leaving out the last part of the quote, it comes across more like Pippin just trying to get out of singing, with a little jab at Denethor at the end. Basically, it sounded like "Yes I can sing, but not for <I>you."</I> I think anyone who hasn't read the book or doesn't remember the quote's exact completion, would see it that way, anyway. So by itself, it isn't quite contradictory as all that.<P>Or maybe I just so love Pippin and gloomy songs that I don't care about the accuracy, so long as those two things can be put together. Just thought I'd say that before anyone else got the chance.
